Quality control
“Hermes” produces according to HACCP and its own onboard qualitysystem. A very experienced and highly qualified crew secures the delivery of high quality products.

Fishing areas
The fishing areas we operate in are mainly in the north-east Atlantic (FAO area 27). Within this area we find the Norwegian Sea, the Barents Sea, the North Sea and the fishing grounds around Svalbard.

In these cold clean waters we find fish and prawns of the highest quality. Due to the low temperature in the sea everything grows slowly, which provides for the firm texture and good taste that fish and prawns from these waters are so known for.
